Alexandru, it seems to be Metallina (Metallina)
for the species you have to check the 7th stria
-not visible or only with some punctures finer than those in the 6th stria = lampros
-visible at base toward the middle of elytra with punctures not finer that those in the 6th stria = properans
Hope I'm correct! :hi:

hi alexandru

anyway, give also a picture taken from above

properans has more elongate, more parallel-sided elytra, with distinct shoulders, while in lampros elytra are stuoter and more oval, with less distinct shoulders
